Ranked from 6 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
Both magnets combine and become STRONGER TOGETHER, and can run faster, and jump higher. They also have to work together to move around as one big magnet but are both still stronger.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
This game is made by 1 developer. All code was written by me, all music was played by me, and all 3D models were made by me all from scratch.

Interesting concept. I didn't try playing this with someone else, so I don't think I got the intended experience. I will say it's a good use of the theme. But, the opening walk to join the magnets was a bit long and boring. The platforming was also very awkward since you're not able to adjust yourself when in the air and the acceleration is hard to judge at times. 

One suggestion I have is maybe levels where you start off as separated and must get together to be able to make it over long gaps or over obstacles you couldn't do alone. 

Very cute game and has a lot of potential.

Thank you for the feedback, I intended for the walk to be long and both players must communicate with each other and find certain landmarks (like the stairs) to get there. But I do agree when you are playing by yourself it can be a bit boring. I tried to make it so that  you could jump in the air, but as a beginner to Unity, I didn't really know what to do. I was planning on making a level system, but I didn't think I had enough time to do that.

Nice game, really unique concept but works well. The Cameras angles are a little low when the magnets are combined but overall pretty good game.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah I should of fixed that, I thought the same thing.

looks good but I can't play as im on Mac.

Oh, sorry about that. Next time I make a game I will be sure to make it playable to mac.

Wait I didn't check the Mac and Linux boxes when I was publishing the game  that is why it is only for windows. Am I allowed to check those boxes inside of itch.io now that it is already submitted ?

It's a neat concept, but the camera's angled in a way where its hard to see when the magnets are combined. I also had some trouble figuring out where to go. The level where the magnets are combined could benefit from some more landmarks and interesting places to visit. But for doing everything on your own, great job!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback, I agree, it is pretty hard to see when the magnets are combined, and I was planning on making more places but I was out of ideas. I hoped you enjoyed the game and thanks again for rating it!
